This line is beautiful. I had some fat eights a while ago but used them up. I'm getting ready to have girl #2 this summer and think it's perfect for the little ones :) Sewing is definitely my relax time. It's what I do to unwind on weekend evenings when all else is quiet (or at least should be!).

I'm almost embarrassed to admit it, after so much drooling over them , that winning this would give me my very first bits of designer fabric! Quilts and bags are my favorite things to keep my sewing machine humming!

okay, Leigh. I wanna be included on this one. That fabric is so cute!! hmmmm....what do i enjoy sewing? mostly quilts! but i also love making little things for River, like stuffed toys and things to play with. :)

Mom of 5 boys! Congrats! My mom has 4, but then I came in the middle to break up all the boyness in our house. But I grew up playing nintendo and star wars while still managing to be a complete girly girl. One of the things that I love about sewing is the fact that so many people are coming to rediscover it and learn how fun it can be!

the thing i love most about sewing is that i can take what looks like a pile of colourful flat sheets and turn it into something amazing and beautiful - and the fact that not eveyone can do it, makes it even more worth it!

I started out by sewing for my kids (my daughters, especially) but then they got picky about what they wore...so I ventured into quilts and love it! But I also love the instant gratification of a bag or pouch that can be done in one evening :-)

I came to visit via Kati's blog, and have to say, I really am crushing on your quilts! I love the masculine colors and modern stipes, etc. I am not one to "follow" unless I really mean it, but I will be following you!

I love the Mendocino line, but the only one I have from the pieces you're giving away is the middle one. They are beautiful, and you are too kind for sharing with your readers! Thanks! And hey, we just swapped some fabric on flickr. :)-Jacey

What a fun giveaway! My favorite things to sew would be quilts- lots and lots of them- and clothes for little ones. I like sewing quilts a little bit more because of the freedom... but seeing my girls in things I've made is also fantastic.

Five boys! That must keep you busy. I enjoy sewing just about anything but I get the most satisfaction when I just fool around with scraps and create them into something. I love the Mendecino line. Thanks for a chance to win.

I've never owned any HR and these FQs would be perfect for a baby girl quilt -- we found out this evening that another grandniece is due to be born this summer. I enjoy making quilts the most -- and we handquilt ours. Thanks for this lovely giveaway.

Oh I love this line! I got a bunch of the pink colorways when it first came out but am now wishing I'd gotten more of it in other colors. I really enjoy sewing smaller projects, like housewares. More instant gratification than quilting. :)

What I like to sew seems to change over time. I used to enjoy just pieced quilts, then paper pieced quilts and right now I love to make applique quilts, either needle turned or fusible machine. It is all so much fun.

So pretty! I was on a bit of a buying break when this line came out and have been kicking myself ever since. And what to I like to sew? I'd love today quilts but more realistically it's quilt tops as they don't always end up quilted.
